Holding a stranger, just for a night
To fill a void in your soul,
Yearning to feel that magic once more,
Wishing someday to feel whole,
Praying against hope, this may be the one,
This time you'll do it right.
Overflowing with passion, a burning desire,
Grasping your dream so tight.
Overwhelmed by emotion you follow your heart,
You take love for a ride,
But desire dims, and passions fade,
Who is this person at your side?
Like an angel flying with blind faith
You will always heed love's call,
A dreamer at heart, but reality hurts,
And with broken wings you fall.
In an instant love turns to regret
As you ponder the when and why,
What did you do? What did you loose?
Why did you even try?
Then a voice on the wind, a shadow in the night,
Whispers the forever you never knew
As you pick yourself up, and resume your search
For the beauty of a love so true.
